This is the charater generator I wrote on OpenOffice to generate enough gladiators for a convention tournament. This page is also the character sheet, which includes experience levels and combat cheat sheet. All of this was to make it easy for the players.
The final ranking after the convention tournament. The game had 18 players in total, which is about the average number for a weekend convention game. There was enough roleplaying in and between the bouts of fighting to give the character space to grow. All epiteths were earned in play.
As seen from the origins, the game was set on Mystara, the D&D "Known World" from way back.
In addition to the rules from ACKS, I made new rules for down-time activities and for the pre-fight party where the gladiators entertain high society guests. For the random events I used historical information on gladiatorial games. Examples of this are the sponsorship deals and cursing of opponents.
